Denis:
Thanks, that is very helpful starting point which proves that it is
possible!
I have tried the suggestions there, but, so far:
* I cannot adjust the gap ("distance" or "gutter") between the columns
* It seems impossible to turn-on a column-separating ruled line
* It would be useful to have a method for controlling orphan / widow
behaviour (such that a footnote in the left column doesn't spill-over as
just a single line into the 2nd column).
Any comments or ideas?
